hybrid 1043 Report post Posted August 13, 2008 Yep im down with that, would be awesome! Do we know anyone at Ardmore?? Only problem I have is a speed limiter. get it removed please. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Apex 693 Report post Posted August 13, 2008 get it removed please. I don’t think I have the balls… This guy called Andy removed hiss had fitted a M5 cluster and did some crazy speeds. He likes to call out the numbers and even caption them on screen. An M5 must be nuts! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greg111 13 Report post Posted August 14, 2008 You’d get one to 220kph.. I sh*t you not, BMW seem to make there cars capable of quite high speeds, they just keep on going. Yes it may get to that speed but imagine how long it would take.....3 weeks? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eagle 1662 Report post Posted August 14, 2008 We removed the limiter on our E32 750i had it upto 270 still felt like it had plently more to go. It was only doing about 4-5k rpm Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Apex 693 Report post Posted August 14, 2008 Yes it may get to that speed but imagine how long it would take.....3 weeks? About 1 km slightly down hill followed by a funny burning smell.. Thats what my mate told me BMW’s just keep on creeping up in speed no matter how gutless. Most Japers I have had hit a wall and stay there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
